On Wednesday, the U.S. Senate voted down an effort by U.S. Sen. Pat Roberts to prohibit states from requiring genetically modified food labels through a bill that was designed to create a USDA voluntary labeling standard for genetically modified products.

But despite what happened, Rod Bain reports that efforts continue by Senate leaders to resolve the issue of GMO food labeling after that amendment failed the procedural vote.
